CUaUXST CU., TOISdO, U Gastonia Boy In the Xavy Deeirrllies a Terrlftic KUirni Which IjaNtetl Two Daya and Xiglitu Several Lives Were lst. (The following interesting letter descriptive of life at sea is from tne pen of R. L. Moton. of Gastonia. who is serving a term in Uncle Sam's na vy. The brief description of the ter rible storm which recently ravaged the Gulf of Mexico and Atlantic seaboard gives one the impression that solid land is good enough when the ocean waves go on a rampage. I Hampton Roads, Va. I . S. S. New York. To the Editor of The Gazette: I will try to give you the best sto ry ! can of my experience as a sailor aboard one of Uncle Sam s super dreadnaughts during a recent storm which swept the Atlantic coast. No, I cannot do that; I could never de scribe it as it really was for only self experience could tell you the mean i t of a storm at sea. I can at least Uive you a faint idea of what one Ts expected to face on high seas. On August 19th we received or ilers to sail from Newport. R. I., " here we were at anchor in the bay. These orders were welcomed by the crew in a. very crabbed mood, for tne day was exceptionally beautiful, and nearly every fellow had intended to take "liberty at 1 p. m. Jterf&y: The order w a gteat disappoint ment. sS'ou can realize some of tne sour faces on some of the sailors w ho had planned in advance to spend a pleasant Sunday at the beach In Newport. At noon here came an order from the engineer's office to light off aP boilers and prepare to get underway by 4 p. m. This being a very unusual order, everybody was lost as to 'what wa coming, as there had been no previ ous word passed, and never before had they ever lit off all fourteen boilers when going out on an ordi nary cruise. But at 4 p. in. everything was se cured for sea. and the engines were turning over. Sunday morning tne crew learned that we had been un der way all night, at the rate of 1 8 knots per hour, which is 103 revolu tions of the engine per minute. All this was quite unusual and the entire crew was lost as to where the fleet was en route. This doubt brought forth a variety of rumor through tne ship's company, such as "we have been called to Mexico." Not until Tuesday morning of the 22nd wa" there any information given out to the crew. It was then that the fleer was disbanding and all ships wera taking a different course Then a notice was posted on the bulletin board that we had sailed under seal ed orders, to carry out "game of war' and at the opening of all sealed or ders each ship was to act under Its own officer. At this point we were "00 miles east of New York city and 330 miles north ff the Bermuda Is lands, which is an English coallnr station. Tuesday evening of the 22nd there appeared a peculiar looking cloud. It was neither blue or black but it seemed yellow, as well as I can describe its color. But later, as it grew dusk, everything in sight ap peared green, even the lights on the ship appeared green and everybody was in a very excited mood at that time as to what was going to hap- This would be a more proserout community if every father in it would say to Ids boy: "Hon, start a bank account tills very week and ev ery dollar you save and put in tne bank I'll give you another dollar to put in the bank with it" and if everybody would have SENSE enough to do it. The "l'Hl'DKXT" young man who hanks his money becomes m PROSPEROUS man. Make OUR bank YOUR bank. Citizens National Bank Officers: ANDREW E. MOORE, Prea. A. G. MYERS, (Active) Vlce-Pres. W. H.

About midnight everybody was awakened by the rolling and pitch ing of the ship. Finding my efforts all in vain to go to sleep again, I de cided to go up on the main to see what was taking place. Well, I won't tell you what was taking place on the main deck, for just as I was ascending the main deck 1 was greeted by a heavy white cap, whicti nan apparently come over the bow. and was so heavy that It was finding its way over the high wa ter line and down the hatchways to the decks below. But at that. I was well satisfied that the main deck was no place for me, so I returned to my berth below and remained si lent, although at times my mind wai quite lively in looking out for the near future. At daybreak the storm wis still in its raging might and the high seas were coming over the bow in such a manner that it seemed as though one sea was trying to pass the other. That morning I went ud in the mast to the searchlight platform, but my time was short there, as the roll of the ship was most too heavy for me. Weil, I didn't get sea sick. In fact, I have never been sea Bick, and I a h n I A hnnila I Vi m i-aAlf ntrnsir I . r7!7?V Q rfiwLI Ployes who ing. But the sight of my shipmates who were sea sick was awful, so much so that I shall not disgust you with describing that stage of tne game. The storm had not yet reached Its climax, though It remained terrifftc for two days and nights. On Thurs day, of the 23rd. in the afternoon the ship reached the point of roll ing 33.3 degrees, which is breaking the ships rolling record since sne went in commission. It was at this time that there was much damage done. There were boats washed over the side: life boats were lost and other things too numerous to mention. In case of the U. S. S. Delaware and Nevada lives were lost. Four men were washed overboard from the Delaware. The Nevada lost two men who were washed over board by the high Seas. Althougn these men were seen at a distance, all efforts were in vain to save them or even to secure their bodies. Once overboard, they were swept in tne grasp of the white caps, which were 30 or 4 0 feet in height. At the same date the distress signal from the U. S. S. Delaware was picked up by wireless. The U. S. S. Texas was tne first to her aid, after the relief sig nal was picked up. It was thought for a few days that the storm had put an end to the proposed war game. On the morning of the 26th the sea was brightly shining, and. oh, what a relief when we heard that we were home-port bound to New York city. Later we learned that we were on ly to make a landing party at Long Island, in an effort to capture New York city, which was a success, and a great figure in the war game. Then we made straigtway for Newport. R. I., and also captured that port, thus showing how easily it could be invaded by a foreign fleet of enemies. Though the ports cap tured were only protected by torpe do boats and submarine tenders, while the attacking fleet was the battleship squadron. Meeting at New Hope. On Wednesday, October 11th, at 7 p. m. Rev. Thomas H. Watklns, evangelist of Kings Mountain Pres bytery, will begin a meeting at New Hope Presbyterian church. Rev. R. S. Burwell, the pastor, and his peo ple most cordially Invite the public to attend these meetings. There will be preaching at 10:30 a. m. and 7 p. m.. daily. . KEN-TONE for NERVOUSNESS.
